How to install Vmware5 in FreeBSD?

2005-09-09 Thread Kenny
Well, I have downloaded the official Vmware5 package from the official
site. However, it is a Gzipped tarball rather than a normal package.

I know how to install Linux RPMs in FreeBSD. But this time, I have no idea.


Quite puzzled, and needing help.

Many thanks in advance.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that vmware5 does not run on FreeBSD. 
Latest version available for FreeBSD is AFAIK 3.x.

Yes. I've qemu version qemu-0.7.0s.20050717 up as well in my 5.4R;
do you know if kqemu works as well and how I plug it in?

Before installing the qemu port, just edit your make.conf and add
WITH_KQEMU=YES
This will build and install the appropriate Module.
When install is finished u can use it as usual
kldload kqemu
That's it! ;)

GL,

Ice

kqemu works fine with FreeBSD 5.4.

first, you should install qemu from port so you can change the makefile with 
with_kqemu=yes
second, after you finish the compile thing, you should remember that kqemu is 
running as a kernel object (.ko). So either you can start it with kldload 
kqemu.ko or you can simply add kqemu_load=yes to your /boot/loader.conf to 
autostart it every time you boot your computer.

Good luck!
